1. Aurora
2. Burning Souls
Into the darkness where your journey ends in fear
Annihilation of humanity can't save you here
All the creations of former generations
Prowess of destruction is a deadly trade
Your bloodstained hands, your ruthless friends
Never resting until resistance fades
[chorus:]
The time has come to pay for your sins
Or you'll walk through the fire
Just yield control and leave us alone
Our burning souls
Why can't you realise? Why must we live in pain?
Why threaten children and spill blood in vain?
Your attitude of hatred can never claim success
We'll carry on to spoil your vicious game
[chorus]
3. Temujin
I turn around in the night
To stare at the moon
Tears from the earth and the skies
Will power my soul
An ocean like the silver light
Reflection in my eyes
I'll turn your day to night
The demon comes
When the candles all burned
Down below the earth we see
That evil won't pass by
The kiss of dark, you'll feel... you know
This means war!
[bridge:]
They say I'm blind
I don't care who's right
I don't care who's wrong
I won't deny
Bow to the will of the strong
[chorus:]
I come now
Run for your shelters and caves
Because I'm coming down
You are the one
Precious one, 'cause I'm coming
I'm out for you kings and your knaves
The battle is on
You are the one
Precious one, Temujin
Our host out on the open plain
We'll fill your hearts with fright
Your souls, a sea of pain
The end of your days draw near
And I'll seize your crown
Forever soiled with shame
Our swords will spill the plight
And hallowed be my name.. you know
It means war!
[bridge]
[chorus]
4. Black Hole Wisdom
I ask for attention
I feel the apprehension
And I get no answer
Felt like I was decaying
Devoutly started praying
Let my evil die
I obtain no reunion
It seems you can't forgive me
Please send me an angel
[chorus:]
Black hole wisdom
Who did I pray to?
You never listened
Why can't you say
Where were you all my wordly life?
Why can't you say
Show me the way
To salvation day
This might be the last chance
For me to make my humble stance
And offer my sacrifice
I've come to join you
Got to find a way through to you
Gimme a little piece of advice
Don't lead me into temptation
It's time for the revelation
Now I realise
[bridge]
Till salvation day
Till salvation day
Till salvation day
5. Eternal Flame
I walk across the land
Where the mountains rise
A strong and cold wind blowing hard
And the flawless stone hides
The reason for my journey burns
Can't you see the glow
A world beyond the promised land
On the road until the end
[chorus:]
Eternal flame
That shines the night
I'm away till the morning light
Eternal flame
That shines the night
I'm away till the morning light
Eternal flame
I'm awake
Joining one with all
Into the sky I'll fly
I walk across the land
Where the holy river flows
The people gather to its banks
Where the lotus flower grows
Revealing all the secret shades
So can you feel the might?
My journey back to my motherland
Unfolding a serving hand
[chorus]
... I see the white up in the dawning sky
It carries me to mystic shores
Gonna leave you 'cause I'm begging for more
We've known each other so long,
I know, way before
The winds will take me so far away
I'll leave you behind, but I'm longing to stay
We'll be together again,
I know, another day
Everything is suffering
Striving for live
Give up the craving
And what remains...
The eightfold path
The end
6. Save the Holy Land
When we look at our world today
The beauty has gone and the sky is grey
We don't know, what's going on
This man has brought us a life in chains
His power rules and we cry in pain
Oh Lord, please help us turn down his reign
[chorus:]
The holy land
Go hand in hand
Our prayers will bring joy and freedom
The holy land
Is the only place alive
To live as one
When we look at our children today
They see their world in a different way
We can't let the man... lead them astray
Why destroy our nature each day?
Every tree has a life and it's taken in vain
Take us back to the past, we've got to save...
[chorus]
... is the only place on earth
It's hard to imagine what future will bring
Let freedom prevail and our children sing
Back to our roots, we've got to save...
[chorus]
7. The Last Call
What I had to trace
Dazzled from my own
Those rare and precious stones will stay
No generation can keep possessions
After they pass away
They'll be my gift that I'll leave so far behind
The end is near, feel the fear
I'm crossing the river
Who can say, what will stay?
There's no conclusion
Man made glory, an ancient story
Lasting forever
Always decieving and not believing
Living an illusion
[chorus:]
I muse upon all
Close to the last call to leave
Those tinder tears
And million of fears
Forgive!
I muse upon all
Close to the last call to leave
Those tinder tears
And million of fears
Forgive!
My fading soul, losing control
No restitution
Surrounded by pain, I try in vain
Can't hold on
My dying shell feeds the earth
Can I give in return
Bless creation, building on hope
Will I live forever?
[chorus]
8. Eurasia
9. The Stranger
I felt guilty without a reason
An outsider with wide eyed gazed
The fear in my heart
As my palms sweat
I'm helpless! Got to run out of here
He pulls a gun without a reason
And I'm a victim of innocent age
I see his madness kin to creature
And don't blame this on me
[chorus:]
I see the signs of danger
In the eyes of the stranger
It paralyzes me, confuses me
Until a new day begins
I see reactions of anger
In the eyes of the stranger
It paralyzes me, confuses me
Until the dawn returns
Is it a nightmare what I have been through?
Is it a dream or reality?
He's grining my way without knowing me
I don't know what the hell's going on
It seems like he is mentally retarded
And what for mankind existing today
I see the mirror and neon lightning
Will I go blind?
[chorus]
10. The Painting
A sleepless night
Near my river that flows
I'm longing to see your face
The winds are so high
As I start to shiver
And the clouds fade away
[chorus:]
Embrace me please
And let my dream come true
You are the vision in my painting in the sky
Over my land
And your beauty shines
When the moon surrounds me
Makes me feel so insecure
Can't you feel my pain
As I'm reaching out for you
And it's driving me insane
[chorus]
11. Kyrie
12. Semaruma
